The Conference has been devided into 3 major tracks:
1. BEYOND GOVERNANCE. Innovation leads us to the future, and the future makes us innovate. How to govern situations that are in the future and that we have never experienced before? How to consider unforeseen events and uncertainty? How to understand the future of the relationship between people and their governments?
2. DESIGN BEYOND RESISTANCE. Our world is using many comfortable and unsustainable models – social, ecological, economical. How to challenge the status quo – and go beyond mere disruption but design the next solution.
3. DESIGN BEYOND TRANQUILITY. Creating a world for living in meaningful peace of mind - this is the oldest task of design. How to design a future that is better for all of us? Will the problems arising today create new meanings and opportunities for design tomorrow? How to see sustainability not as a constraint but as a great challenge that gives us opportunities for innovation?
Tracks will be moderated by: Dan Mikkin, Pärtel Vurma and Frederico Duarte. Conference general modeartor is Martin Veisman.
The conference will take place on June 18, 09:30-17:00 at Kultuurikatel (Creative Hub) as a physical event, enabling also some hybrid activities. The conference will be recorded and available for later review.
